NAMEspic -- Sony Programmable I/O Controller device driver
SYNOPSISdevicespicDESCRIPTION
The spic driver allows using moused(8) to drive the Sony Vaio Jogdial
device found on several Sony Vaio models. It works by mapping the for-
ward, backwards, up, and down inputs to ``l'', ``r'', ``u'', and ``d'',
respectively. From that a program reading the Jogdial can decide what to
do. Some actions might include scrolling, mimicking mouse buttons,
launching applications, or other useful things.
SEE ALSOmoused(8)HISTORY
The spic device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 4.6.
